Previously, Kaski police had taken action against noise pollution resulting from vehicle modifications. Initially, efforts focused on traffic control and restoring modified parts to their original condition. Vehicles found in violation were referred to the traffic management office.
Despite these measures, Superintendent of Police (SP) Mohan Thapa of Kaski District Police Office stated that incidents of vehicle modification persist, so they decided to launch the sticker campaign.
SP Thapa said that strict action will be taken against any activity that disrupts public peace or causes discomfort and inconvenience to the public due to vehicle modifications resulting in noise pollution.
